The advancement and swift re-
cognition accorded by the people

alike a matter of Just pride and
wonder to all. Each and every
citizen must feel a deep interest,
and take a fond pride in our edu-

day life of the people, it's spirit is
broad and catholic, and it's inhu-

Our local columns will set forth
the progress so far made, an ap-
proximate of the chances OF the

WHITE OAKS ACADEMY.

Local reader, how does this
sound Is it not musical to the
ear and pleasing to all the finer
senses Does it not carry with it
a delicious flavor, and leave a taste
in the mouth such as you never
expected to experience at this al
titude! Yet it is not the baseless
fabric of dream, a mirage, an
ignis tatuus, or other delusion, but
as near fixed fact as anything IN
the near future can be. The intel
ligent, the educated, and those OF
our citizens feeling the want and
Importance of an education IN
themselves, and it's importance to
the rising generation, have SAID,
" there shall be an Academy es-
tablished in White Oaks" and
there will be. We rejoice in the
contemplated work, and bid it
moreover, "God-speed."
Now let us contemplate the un-
derlying idea moment, and study
the Importance.
The worlds educational systems,
theories and appliances have been,
and will continue to be, governed
by the fixed ana iinmutable laws
of progression, The earth and
all that pertains thereto the wide
universe teeming with life and
regnant forces the illimitable
heavens, zoned with stars, and
crowded with myriads of moving
worlds ; all alike obey the infinite
law of progression ordained by the
Eternal mind from the first mo
ment OF their life's existence. The
nations Of antiquity had their ed.
ucatlonal institutions, their aca
demic groves, and their great and
renowned public instructors.
At the commencement OF the
Christian era, and under the sway
OF lmperial Rome, there had grown
up chain OF splendid cities, tairel
than the proudest capitals of Eu
rope. Their libraries and school.
were the resort of thousands, anC
from their halls and porticos OF
learning, went forth a host of stu
dents who filled their age with ac
tive speculations. Yet in Il few
short centuries the eruption o
North-men, the fall Of Rome, anC
the corruption Of Christianity, haC
well nigh blotted from the world
page, the learning and scolasti
discipline Of her dawn. Unde
the wise rule OF the Moors on tn,
peninsula OF Spain, public libra
rios had been collected, academic
and schools organized, and prou,
temples reared, from whose ob
sorvatories, scholars sought to i'll
vestigate and understand the man
ifold wonders of her arched an,
| circlng heavens, Yet their oveI
throw and expulsion by the Lati
power again rolled back the advar
cling tide of the worlds learning
Their libraries were given to tn
flames, and their graceful observe
tones of granite and marble wer
filled by Monkish superstition
with resounding chimes, who's
brazen bells had been purified
christened and baptsed by mitre
bishops IN historic waters. YC
from Barcelona, Granada an
Cordova, had gone forth the gerl
of a diffuslve education which wa
afterwards destined to fructit
and bring forth fruit in coul
tries beyond the rapid Rhine.

OF, WITH, OR NEITHER ?

We know not why, but Of late,
two correspondents, the first from
Nogal, and last week, one from
Eagle Creek, both members of the
Farmers Alliance, assumed that
it not of, we were with them in the
endorsement of the underlying
principles of their Order. Hav-
ing been questioned by several as
to our status, and in order that no
misunderstanding should exist, we
deem it proper to define our po-
sition.
First, we are not fully advised
as to what are the underlying
principles Of the Alliance, but if
one OF the principles is Free Trade,
as declared by the chief Mogul.
Breeze, when here lately, we are
neither of or with them, but for
ninst. Upon scarcely any ques-
ton do we occupy middle ground,
but advance to a positive position.
We are not free trader, in favor
of tariff for revenue only, an in
cidental tariff advocate, but favor
a protective tariff, a tariff not for
revenue only but for protection to
American indus; s;ry, whether rep
resented by American labor or
capital. How any man possessed
OF intelligence, and having the
good Of his country and country
men at heart can favor free trade,
challenges our reasoning powers.
It's paralyzing effect upon Ireland,
once the most fourishing of man
ufacturing countries of the world,
of itself would convert us from the
tallacy had we ever been an adhe-
rent Of it-and the whitening et
feet of low tariff in this country,
and the stimulating resalts of high
tariff, causes us to look upon free
trade as a heresy as fatal in it's op
erations on American industry as
the bite of a scorpion to the phys
ical body. We do not know that
free trade is really one Of the te-
nets of the Alliance faith, but it
was the chief stock in trade of Mr..
Breece's argument, and If he was
in error in SO presenting, a halt
should be called.

{
riculturists what would be the con
dition of societyl
Indeed we have the word Of God,
us given us through the bible, that
from the earliest days Middle
Men" existed, for what are miners,
mechanics, laborers and artizans,
but middle men ? The father of
Christ was carpenter, several
OF the Apostles were fishermen.
And right here we are reminded
that then, rs now, mean middle
men existed. Judas Iscariot was
Of this character, but we have not
read of his making much out of
the money which he received for
his treachery. But this is a di-
gression. Behind this period we
read of large and populous cities
being built, of merchants transact
ing business, and of banks, then
known as "money exchanges. "
When Solomon was about to
build his Temple he sent to Hiram,
King of Tyre, for material, which
Hiram contracted to furnish con-
ditioned that corn be paid therefor,
giving as reason why he preferred
corn to money that his people
lived on an island where corn
could not be produced, plainly
conveying the idea that his people
were not producers, but middle
men.
such as are wrapped up IN the
idea that what is known as "mid-
die men" are but the otfshoots Of
idleness and craft, should learu
that middle mem now, as in all
the centuries past, are necessity
even to the farmer. AS well try
to make three links of sausage and
dispense with middle link, as to
go through the world without the
aid of middle men. We say aad
because we mean it in precisely
that sense. Why, what is a cler
gyman but a middle mana mid
die man standing between the GRE
atCre and the Creator? What are
we but a middle man, standing
at the threshold of the future, and
crying back unfolding secrets to
anxious denizens blinded with the
glamour OF the present.
Now let none misunderstood us
We are free to admit that the most
enviable position in which man
can be placed is that OF owner of
soil with knowledge and inclina-
ton to till it. He then earns
his bread while operating as a
partner of and with the Almighty,
the former sowing and the latter
maturing. But the world is not
adapted to the holding of and pro
viding for all farmers. Other
fields offer for legitimate trade and
all such should stand upon al
equality with the agriculturists,
none above, none below.
Now, what the farmer wants il
not more producers but more con
sumers, and they mu st come thro
middle men. Instead Of forcing
more men between the plow han
dies they should use their best en-
| doavours to establish manufacto
ries, something which would cen
sumo their cereals or cause then
TO be consumed.
Is there reasoning or reason

Then Mr.. b. was severe on the
middle men," and prepared
through the Alliance to abolish
them. Now we propose to be
practical, and the idea here set
forth is impracticable. Middle
men ramlfy all conditions of life.
Tradition, as well as ancient and
modern history, tell us that they
have existed in all ages, in about
the same ratio they do now, and
they will exist while the planets
do, subject, ct course, to healthy,
legitimate, legal restraint. But
Mr.. b. made us smile while on
this subject, for ere he got through
he proposed getting rid OF middle
men by showing them to one side
and taking their places serving as
middle men between manutactur
ers or large dealers and small con
sumers.

AN excursion train Of seventeen
cars, of which fifteen left Peoria,
and the balance left Bloomington,
ILL.,, was wrecked Wednesday
night of last week, at a bridge or
culvert crossing Vermlllion river,
a short distance east Of Chatsworth.
Ten cars and two engines were
piled upon one another in the
wreck. Over one hundred dead
bodies were recovered. The
excursion was bound for Niagara
Falls, and the passengers were
gathered from Peoria and points
about there and along the line. 1t
was one of the most destructive
railroad catastrophes on record in
this country, and will clothe in
